　　Formal work placement (minimum of five weeks) is an integral element of the course and takes place in year 3. The placement programme will familiarise the student with work practices and procedures and provide him/her with the opportunity to observe the practical application of theoretical knowledge gained on his/her programme. The placement is supported by a member of academic staff in MTU together with a workplace mentor. The aim of the industry placement is to introduce the student to structured employment in a relevant work sector and to develop the student’s understanding of the organisation, its procedures and technology.

　　Over the duration of the course, the student develops skills related specifically to architectural technology as well as an appreciation of the role and requirements of other members of the building team. A graduate of architectural technology is a critical member of the design team, as s/he has an excellent appreciation and knowledge of the other design team discipline roles, and is involved in the coordination and development of a project at all stages.
